Jin Ling sighs as he walks along the main market of Lotus Pier. It's something familiar, happy. Even if jiujiu thinks it to waste of time. He'd spent more than enough years playing nice with sect leaders, undoing the damage that had been done to the Jin name. He grips the sword in his left hand a little tightly.
Not only did he have his grandfather's reputation looming over him, but also xiao shu--he stoops himself--Jin Guangyao. It'd been five years since that night in the temple when xiao shushu showed his true colors, when they learned of...well, everything. The night he became sect leader. He'd had jiujiu, of course. But word somehow got out about the events that transpired that fateful night.
Even more whispers from every part of his world as he took the lead and tried his hardest to undo the damage xiao shushu had done.
When he walks through Lotus Pier, he likes to think he's able to feel his mother's presence amongst the lotuses in the water, hear her converse, maybe, with the different merchants.
He'd grown taller, more lean. Fairy's barks draw him out of his reverie and he smiles at his faithful companion. His only friend besides the other juniors. He'd kept in touch with them but...everything kept them from being able to be together even just for a night hunt. He's grateful for this opportunity to visit jiujiu and had heard that he had Wei Wuxian had even begun to try to repair their relationship. A small hope springs in his heart: perhaps he'd finally see his friends after so long.
not so little you and i anymore
